BLUE THUMB PUMP INFORMATION
Blue umb products are created by experienced pond professionals. ese multi-purpose submersible
pumps are designed for use in water garden and koi pond ltration systems, and to create waterfalls, streams
and water features.
Mag-Drive models are suitable for pumping clear ltered water, such as when using a Blue umb
Pond Skimmer or when placed inside a pump sock. e temperature of the water being pumped must
never exceed 95 degrees Fahrenheit. Do not pump sewage, inammable, corrosive or explosive liquids
(e.g. petrol, fuel, dilutents), greases, oils, or foodstus.
For Your Safety
e power cord must never be used to carry or move the pump.
e pump should be unplugged before taking any action on the pump including placing it into
or removing it from the water.
If the power supply cord has been damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer’s authorized
customer support service in order to avoid all risks.
Installing the pump
• ese pumps can be installed in a pond skimmer or submerged directly into the water.
• e pump must always have water running through it. Running the pump dry will void the warranty.
• Do not place the pump where it can become clogged with debris or gravel. Do not set the pump on the
bottom of the pond to prevent the pump from draining the pond. Monitor the pump regularly to make
sure the intake remains unclogged.
• Plug the pump into a ground fault interrupter (GFCI) protected outlet that is in a dry place, protected
against any risk of ooding. Verify that the power supply voltage and frequency match the specications
on the pump nameplate.
DO NOT cut the cord and direct wire the pump for any reason. Doing so will void the warranty.
Winter Operation
e pump may be run during cold weather, but it is absolutely essential to prevent the pump housing and
PVC pipe from freezing. In the event ice may freeze around the pump, remove the pump from the water,
empty it and place it where it cannot freeze.
Problem Possible causes Solutions
e pump does not run. • Power cord unplugged.
• Impeller jammed.
• Plug cord securely into the socket and
check if there is voltage on the line.
• Disconnect the power cord, remove impeller
cover and check if impeller is free to run.

• Air bubble in the pump, produced
during the plunge.
• Suction lter clogged.
• Discharge tube clogged or obstructed.
• Stop the pump, do not run the pump dry.
• Add water
• Get the air out by plunging the pump
while in a tilted position and shake it with
the discharge tube open.
• Disconnect the power cord, clean the
pump bottom.
• Disconnect the power cord: take o the
tube and clean it.
e pump stops
running automatically.
e thermal overload protection system
stopped the pump. A foreign object has
jammed the pump. e pump was used
in hot water. e pump ran dry.
Disconnect the power cord, correct the
reason for overheating; then wait until the
